PULLMAN - WSU will celebrate “College Colors Day” Sept. 3 and “My Color is Crimson Day” every Friday.
WSU President Elson S. Floyd has signed a presidential decree in which he proclaimed every Friday during the academic year Spirit Day. He encouraged faculty, staff, alumni, students and supporters of WSU to wear apparel bearing the colors or insignias of the university.
“The university recognizes that the wearing of crimson apparel bearing the institution’s approved insignias encourages solidarity among its diverse constituencies and will strengthen the spirit of cooperation within the community,” said the decree.
College Colors Day seeks to promote higher education by increasing public awareness of the achievements of colleges and universities through celebrating the traditions and spirit of the college experience. For more information about Colleges Colors Day, visit www.collegecolorsday.com.
